Jokes on everyone else. My collection of hundreds of Field Tested P250 Sand Dunes skyrocketed in value.

Edit: After fees and taxes, I more than doubled my initial investment.

Curious to see where this lands. I'm not in that space, but it sounds to me like this could be an overcorrection before we know how much more common those rarer items are becoming. It still all comes down to luck of the trade ups

Haha so glad I sold two of the knives I got with money from my first job eight years ago to buy a steam deck OLED earlier this year
